geoserverx's Issues

SwissKnife functionalities

Introducing new Class SK which has functionalities to make certain set of processes for geoserver. This can be helpful to automate boring tasks for users. e.g.

1. When user wants to host all of tables in PostgreSQL store to geoserver
2. When user wants to create layer groups easily
3. When user wants to change styling for number of layers

These types of use cases are quite common in Geoserver and there is no simple REST API call that can make it happen.

I propose new SK class where we'll keep adding more and more functionalites

Create style

https://docs.geoserver.org/latest/en/api/#1.0.0/styles.yaml as per the document, we can use json and xml to create just empty style and then use PUT to put data in it, I tried with application/vnd.ogc.sld+xml and application/zip where we pass sld text (xml) or .sld file respectively and it just creates styles.

I would recommend application/zip method since this will allow users to create sld where ever they want and just push it to GS.

Thoughts?

Missing tests

At least we should have:

• pydantic models to test their serialisation and mandatory fields for validation
• sync/async strategy
